Answer:
<h2>x = 745.5 ft</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
Use sine:
We have a measure of the angle and length of the opposite:
Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>divide both sides by 4695</em>
Y-3=1/2(x+2)
To find the y-intercept, we must first get the equation in slope intercept form. Start off by distributing 1/2 into the parentheses.
y-3= 1/2x+1
Add 3 to both sides
y= 1/2x+4
The slope is whatever is in front of x, in this case, 1/2. The y-intercept is the number after that which would be 4
Mario's mistake is made when doing reciprocal.
7 / (2/3) =
I cannot divide by 2/3, but if I do reciprocal, I can multiply by 3/2. The seven comes first, so it should not be flipped.
Mario's mistake was when he flipped the 7 (or 7/1) to 1/7.
